Обсуждение: #DELETED error when using Access 2000 as frontend
Hi, I tried to subscribe to pgsql-interfaces several times and received "user not found". I also searched the pgsql-interfaces archives, without success. So here is my problem. I want to use pg 7.x as a backend for a MS Access application. I linked a table via ODBC, using the newest ODBC driver. I can open and view tables. But after I insert a new record, all fields will contain "#deleted". When I reopen the table, the inserted data is displayed correctly. How can I fix this? Thank you, Markus

I don't remember the details, but I suspect a search of the knowledgebase at Microsoft (as soon as their dns is fixed - they must be upgrading to windows 2000;^) will yield the answer. Ian

I don't remember I can confirm the problem exists at least in access'97 -- applying both of the office'97 service packs helped. I have noticed all kinds of weird errors in Access which makes it operate badly with Postgres and I really can't recommend it as a frontend application, although I know there are people who use it quite successfully. On a side note - pls reply privately - what Win frontends (apart from web) have people used with Postgres, which work OK for them?

these are common errors on the mysql side also. Most likely poor planing on the Access end. Emils Klotins wrote: > > > I want to use pg 7.x as a backend for a MS Access application.
